yes that means its not bricked at least... now you just have to do the process right lol
Making two posts in development that do not belong here will not help your cause...
So where should a post about a development problem be if not in a ''Development" Room??
ok so what should i do ? is it a must to have the Sd card in to fix my problem and when i hold the up and down i dont get the update thing on the screen why is that and how do i get it? My Atrix was not this hard lol
So a sd card is needed to get past the waiting screen ?
wow more and more people posting in areas they shouldn't maybe if you did a search you would find your answer since i know this has been looked at already. there is even a video out on how to flash clockwork and you still fail. come on people use search.

Development area is for if you Develop an app, rom, mod, fix, etc...
Your issue is not a development issue, its a personal one.
Please post in General.
That being said, I have never seen that issue before.....
Waiting for bootloader to init... ouch!!!
You can try to flash Recovery back on your phone. Enter recovery and do a nandroid restore. Yes you will need an external SDCard. But without a boot loader I think you may be bricked. What did you really do to get this issue?
Did you flash the firmware from another phone?
Once again if you havn't developed anything please make your posts in General for this kind of issue. Otherwise you clutter this thread and make it hard for others to find apps, roms, etc.. here

He flashed recovery first and then rooted his phone. Instead of rooting and then flashing recovery. Please poeple read instructions first before you do anything. Read through the posts as much as possible to prepare yourself for anything that may come up. Do not assume all the instructions are on the first post most of the time they are but sometime you must read through the post and multiple post.

I have gone through the steps to root it but stopped once i got to the part where i had to flash an image because I ran out of time and half the links to get images were broken! I can charge my phone but i cant see the sd card (no matter which one i have in it). did the nbh, recovery, and hard SPL failed with the E drive no signature nonsense

for sure you`re doing something wrong or you`re skipping some steps from the rooting procedure. as for the usb ... i can`t use usb either. it`s a hardware problem. if you don`t find help from somewhere else, give me a mp and we`ll do it. but now i`m gonna sleep

I've got yesterday the same problem (not with flashing, etc., only with no USB-connection). The reason was, that my USB-cable was defect.
Try to connect with this cable another device (digicam, cardreader, etc.) to exclude this reason, before you makes some troubleshootings and workarounds.

Hi all,
I'm having an issue and hope someone can point me to the right direction (thanks).
I followed the all the steps from this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1052064) and after the rom manager asked me to reboot my phone and it went into the endless boot looping. The LG screen show up for around 15 seconds and went back to do the same thing over and over again.
Here are what I've tried so far.
1. Remove the battery to turn back on and issue still persist
2. Tried using the Power button + Volumn down to boot into recovery mode. What it did here was the screen shows the android guy jumping out of the box for around 20 seconds and the screen turn off, then the LG login screen comes back doing it things again.
I have very limited knowledge on android base so I'm not sure what else to try to get my phone back to life again.
I had a post on that thread to ask some other people in there but they seem to ignore my post so if anyone here could help me please, I would appreciate it.
Did you nvflash recovery? If so reflash the stock rooted rom (or any other you want). If you didn't nvflash the recovery you going to have to now to fix the situation..

Hi Squish099,
Thanks for looking into my issue.
I've never done nvFlash recovery before, so according to your response, you said
"If you didn't nvflash the recovery you going to have to now to fix the situation.."
How do I have going to fix the situation? Sorry for my stupid question.
If you could, can you please provide me some basic steps/direction? Like I said, I have very limited knowledge on how android work so if you could, I would really appreciate.

Unfortunately, I don't think he can do that if he can't boot into recovery at all.
@justin
I had the same problem with my old G2, I couldn't boot into recovery and ended up getting a new phone because no one knew what to do to fix it. Since you didn't use Nvflasher to flash clockworkmod recovery, you can't boot into recovery manually, you have to use the ROM manager app to boot into recovery.
I'm not sure what you can do to fix it honestly, I spent days searching for answers

Yes, I spent couple hours already searching for resolution but can't find definite answer. I'm sure someone else out there having the same issue but was able to fix the issue.
I don't think people can easily throw away a good phone like this. Hope there is a resolution for this very soon
My new theory:
Noob + endless bootloop + no recovery = brick

Hey, guys, I feel very inadequate in here so I was wondering if anyone would be willing to Skype with me on how to root, flash, etc. on my phone. I ask for Skype because I truly know next to nothing in regards to this process. I vaguely understand what rooting does but I have never done any of it.
I have been patient with my g2x and am still on my original one(hoping that LG or TMO would do what was right by it's customers) but after the recent news that they "might" start doing internal testing after having pulled our legs with this whole "by summer" nonsense, I have decided to try to correct their mistakes for now.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Even at worse case scenario you should able to revert to exchange and stuff if you have a warranty and whatnot. Have faith and go balls out you wont regret it!! I'm hooked on rooting/flashing.

Are you volunteering help?
Yep, you've totally scared yourself. Don't worry, I did it with my G1. Read, read, read. Then use the one click great app to root your phone then use TGA's thread to put CWM recovery on it.
If you're gonna do this stuff you gotta trust that you know what you're doing (unless there's something you really don't understand). Else you'll never do it.
And I don't think I've seen a thread about a really bricked phone. So relax and use the source young Skywalker.

Easy, download AmonRA recovery and follow youtube video directions. pretty much, download amonra, put on sd card, insert sd card, Power down, then press powerbutton+volume down, brings you to hboot menu....then you look for hboot usb, press volume down, then youre rooted.
First 2 times in rootet, i did it with this htc legend, took a few hours and yet didn't work, but afterwards in went to theunlocker guide and piece of cake it was, i even have to tell im running @ 806 mhz stable, even if found the biggest stable clock on legend to 768 mhz good luck

Ok, I downloaded SuperOneClick(haven't ran it yet) but I want to make sure I dl'd the right one. I dl'd the last and biggest one offered. SuperOneClickv1.9.5-ShortFuse.Driver.rar
Is that the right one?
I was one of the unlucky testers before Steve0007 closed the thread. Did anyone figure out how to save our Sensation after the bad flash? My phone does not light up or respond to any button presses but when plugged into the computer it is recognized as an "unrecognized device."
I guess this is the risk we run being early testers. Hopefully someone figures it out otherwise I've got myself very expensive paper weight.
I assume no two button rescue? And this should be in q/a or general

These things are usually flash at your own risk.
I would never flash a ruu, unless it's official it could cause problems.

Yes as I said, this happened to me exactly when i had a tmo HD2 and flashed a european ruu and it was dead. I tried everything. You will have better luck to talk to your insurance company.
Have you got ADB installed on your pc? If not start downloading and installing it. I will find some links, in just a sec.
Edit:
New to ADB CLICK HER
More to set up path CLICK HERE

Try 3 finger salute (VOL UP,VOL DOWN + POWER) with your phone plugged into pc and pc volume up see if it makes a sound like a device has connected.
Whats was this RUU anyway?
if you just need ADB you dont need all of the stuff above or to set up a path if its extracted to those folders

Ok guys, it looks like the firmware that I posted to another thread from 3.06 bricked few devices. I have flashed it and it worked fine, so i tried again with the package i posted and indeed it is corrupted as it bricked also mine
My device does not respond, so I would think it is dead
I feel sorry for those who have bricked also theirs based on the package i posted.
I am closing my Rom thread and starting now my Rom developments will be for my own use. I will not publish anymore my work.
Again I feel sorry for those who have lost their devices.

ok so now his rom thread is closed. Why not keep it open and work together to help those with bricked devices attempt to restore them to a working state?

I'm not taking a shot at your english but from the sounds of it you rooted, you had a custom ROM installed? and then you put in your sim and re-ran the hack kit? I'm not 100% sure what you actually did but if the hack kit ran and you were rooted and using the rcmix rom, running the hack kit again is explicitly stated not a good idea and will jam you up. If you did this, consult the IRC chat room in the OP of the Hack Kit Thread, I'm sure attn1 and those guys have seen this situation before.

Can you get to hboot by powering up holding volume down and power button at the same time. Ifso see if it is s-off? If so you might be able to enter rocovery this way and flash a rom.
Usually when I have an issue with a rom or phone I flash the stock rooted att rom (pd98 zip) and start over with changing the rom. Sorry I can't give you the zip file I'm on the road all day today but if you search q&a section you will find it.

what it sounds like this user did was ran the hack kit and rooted fine (assumption), the mention of the RCmix ROM makes me believe he installed the ROM and then realized the SIM card wasn't in, so for some reason he/she ran the hack kit again? which if you read the OP of the hack kit, Attn1 explicitly states don't do that or you will get jammed up. I'm assuming Attn1 can fix this quickly since I imagine this issue has happened on more then one occasions and he'll be a better resource to fix this rather then us trying to troubleshoot this from the trial and error side. But if this user cannot get into the IRC chatroom, there isn't much more any of us can do.

agreed. if people dont research HOW to root the phone, likely they dont know WHY to root the phone.
So if I can enter HBOOT. but when I try to enter recoveryel phone does the same. htc logo appears and disappears until it almost off the screen ..
and yes is it s-off.
There's a thread at the top of the Inspire General forum that explains exactly how to fix this. It's been there for a month. Do your research and you'll find the answers you need.
If the rooting process worked correctly.
Here is the rooted updated ATT Gingerbread ROM. Just place PD98 in root of SD card then go into bootloader and let it do its thing. When it ask to install volume up for yes. AS ADVICED " RESEARCH"
Place it in the root of your SD card (you will have to remove SD card and use adapter to move zip file to root of SD card if PC does not recognize phone with USB cable) and power phone off then power back up holding down power button and volume down button at same time. Phone should go to bootloader then it will recognize the PD98 zip file and ask if you want to istall. Volume up for yes and it will do its thing. No need to try to get into recover phone will do it itself with the PD98 zip file. Zip is (ATT ROM 2.47.502.7 w/Radio - 26.10.04.03_M)
This is for Rooted Stck ROM
http://www.fileserve.com/file/RtVn4Re/PD98IMG.zip
NO NEED TO RENAME JUST DOWNLOAD AND PLACE IN ROOT OF SD
Hope it helps
PLEASE DO NOT ATTEMPT ANYTHING ON YOUR PHONE IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOUR DOING.

Then you can flash a custom ROM if you like.
Been there
same thing happened to me, tried flashing cm7, it got stuck in an infinite loop so I did the same thing and had to get a new phone.
Just make up an alibi don't tell them u rooted and make sure there is no damage to ur phone. They just gave me a refurb phone and now I am using RCmix3d.

either way, never really understood why some users post information to a dead thread that has been covered? Then again, I contribute to the problem by bringing it up. Then again you also contribute to the problem by calling me out. I'll yield to seniority though. Google is a great tool.

Because, if peeps are searching like they should, the thread is not really dead. It should still be getting views and if anyone has anything to add, they should do so. Provided the thread is not real old that info is obsolete and what they add is constructive.
